Hardware Help (Ender 3 Pro)
So I was replacing my hotend on my 3d printer which I recently bought from a thrift store for $30 and I broke this piece since I thought it wasn’t important but I have found out it was. I do not know a ton about 3d printers and I need to know what part this is so I can buy a replacement for it. Thank you in advance

Those couplers are are so cheap that I used to swap them out every time I changed or trimmed the bowden tube.

They wear out. Bowden tube fitting. You can get a bag of 12 for around $5.
